Carlos Fuentes

Renowned as a novelist of unsurpassed invention, Carlos Fuentes has collected five novella-length stories that reveal him at the height of his powers -- bold, erudite, enthralling. While Fuentes's first story collection, Burnt Water, took as its underlying theme Mexico City itself, Constancia and Other Stories for Virgins extends its imaginative boundaries out to Savannah, Cádiz, Glasgow, Seville, and Madrid, to both past and present. Mysterious, magical, these stories are concerned with the eruption of the bizarre and the uncanny in the lives of characters for whom the reader has come to care.
